CAMDEN — A new billboard on a major road near a homeless encampment in Camden makes a request of people passing through the embattled city.

It says: "Say something nice about Camden."

The billboard is the brainstorm of Manhattan communications executive Jennifer Barton, who once worked in the city. She's put up a website, saysomethingniceaboutcamden.org and a Facebook page of the same name to try to encourage the compliments.
